how old were you when you first started using contraception; what method did you start with, and where did you learn about it?
|
|
i started with birth control. i started out taking it as a hormonal regulator but ended up taking it as a birth control device
|
|
did your mother talk to you about preventing unwanted pregnancy? did she bring it up, or did you? did you discuss it with your friends?
|
nope. my mom was completly against me having sex and still is. infact i was IN TROUBLE for doing it! it was so stupid because she knew it was going to happen.
|
what about school - what did they tell you regarding birth control?
|
nothing! all they told us was to not have sex! if i wouldnt have been with a guy that wasnt a virgin i dont know what i would have done concerning the condom!
|
have you tried more than one method? what do you like about the one you're using now, and what don't you like about it?
|
condoms. i love em! they prevent pregnancy and stds! whats better than that?!
|
have you had any problems, side effects, etc. with contraception?
|
nope
|
what would you tell your daughter (real or hypothetical) about birth control? When would you start talking to her about it (or others you've tried)?
|
i would tell my daughter as much as i could! i had to go out into a world where i had no idea what was going on and it sucked! i would NEVER do that to my daughter. i would tell her to ask me about it whenever she wanted because i wouldnt want to tell her too early or too late.
|
do you always use contraception when you have sex (that is, when not-hoping to conceive)? How important is contraception to you?
|
yes. contraception is very important to me. i wont have sex without it. no matter how horny i am i must have a condom. if worst comes to worst im strictly oral.
|
is the contraception method you use covered by your insurance?
|
...?
|
this conversation makes me think....
|
about the time i lost my virginity at 14 to my 18 year old boyfriend.
